Nimble aquaculturists adapt to economic conditions and opportunities

April 28, 2009

Weary catfish farmers now landlords of algae | www.msnbc.msn.com

Fish farmers see new opportunities and adapt quickly to changing economic conditions.  Biofuels could be the next new market for aquaculture producers.

Department of Commerce on the cusp of a major decision regarding aquaculture

February 6, 2009

Obama names Judd Gregg commerce secretary | www.google.com

Our trade deficit in fisheries products second only to petroleum.  As a matter of national security, it is time for us to regain control over our food supply and support offshore production of fish.

Government warnings about consumption of wild fish present an opportunity for fish farmers and aquaculture

January 21, 2009

High Mercury Levels Are Found in Tuna Sushi | www.nytimes.com

The health of the U.S. population is in jeopardy from obesity and its related diseases.  Eating more fish can be an answer to this epidemic.  Eating aquacultured fish can help you avoid contaminants in wild fish and be gentle to the environment at the same time.

Midwest crops look deceptively good

July 24, 2008

Corn and Soybean Production Prospects Improving | www.farmdoc.uiuc.edu

The effects of late planting, cool-wet soils in May, and flooding in June can't be overcome by favorable weather in July and August.  USDA's yield and production estimates may well turn out to be on the optimistic side when we finally get the crop in the bin.

Improving weather and falling commodity prices may keep RFS intact

EPA delays RFS waiver ruling | www.ethanolproducer.com

The request for a partial waiver in the RFS by Texas Gov. Perry is likely to be denied, largely due to a 25% reduction in corn prices caused by favorable weather in the Midwest.  This corn crop, however, will be extremely difficult to get an accurate estimate on prior to getting it out of the field, so future price movements  will probably bring the issue of the need for changes in ethanol policies, around again.
